    This was given to me by injection in my shoulder and it hurt like hell. Afterwards I could barely lift my arm. It's now four days later and my arm still is very very tender and hurts if it gets touched. I have tattoos so I can't tell if there's any bruising or not.

    I've had this in an IV and in pill form and never had any problem with it. However, the injection hurt an awful lot more than I expected and left fairly significant bruises and knots on my arms. If you can get it in IV or pill, I would stick with that unless there is a medical reason you must have the injectable.
